MG Hs Hybrid+ News

Pricing and specifications for MG's latest hybrid SUV have been announced.  The 2026 MG HS Hybrid+ offers a more affordable plugless hybrid alternative to the range-topping Super Hybrid PHEV.  It starts from $40,990 (before on-road costs) for the entry level Excite variant, while the Essence variant starts at $44,990. Hybrid+ versions of the HS use a 1.5-litre four-cylinder turbocharged petrol hybrid set-up that delivers 165kW and 340Nm to the front wheels, via a two-speed hybrid transmission.  The hybrid set-up gives the HS Hybrid+ a combined fuel consumption of 5.2L/100km, which is significantly better than the 6.9L/100km in the turbo-petrol powered HS variant.  It also produces more power than the HS, but the hybrid+ comes with a $4,000 price hike on the base model.  The Hybrid+ will face competition in a now hotly contested hybrid mid-size SUV market. 19-inch alloy wheels Leather gear shifter Satellite navigation Keyless entry and start 12.3-inch touchscreen display 12.3-inch driver information display Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Reverse camera 6-speaker audio system Front fog lights Sunglasses box Panoramic sunroof Front parking sensors Heated side mirrors Heated front seats Power and sensor operated tailgate 8-speaker audio system 360-degree camera Wireless phone charger Dual zone climate control  The 2026 MG HS Hybrid+ is yet to be crash tested.  Standard safety features on Excite grade:  7 airbags Lane change assist Lane keep assist Emergency auto braking Adaptive cruise control Blind spot detection Lane departure warning Speed limit assist Pedestrian warning assist The 2026 MG HS Hybrid+ comes with a 10-year warranty, conditional on servicing at MG dealerships, with roadside assist also topped up with each visit.
